Chapter 157: Too Bullying

The drug store has been deserted all morning.

For the whole morning, there was not even a sign of a customer in the drug store.

On the street, people were coming and going, and from time to time someone would stop at the door of the drug store and point.

But in the end, no one came in to patronize.

Li Beifeng had already been mentally prepared for all this.

But Shen Qingning was different.

She couldn't sit still.

After all, she still has a stake in this pharmacy.

In other words, this drug store can be considered one of her properties.

If business is not good, she has no choice but to take responsibility.

Especially... this is an industry jointly owned by her and Li Beifeng.

She was naturally even more sad.

"You should think of a solution quickly!"

Shen Qingning looked at Li Beifeng: "There hasn't been a single customer this morning... How do you do this business? Are you not in a hurry at all?"

"Why the rush?"

“The drug store is out of business, shouldn’t we be anxious?”

"It shouldn't be."

"..."

Shen Qingning was originally a little anxious, but when she saw Li Beifeng's indifferent expression.

As if she thought of something, Shen Qingning looked at Li Beifeng, her eyes a little brighter: "Did you expect it a long time ago? Did you already think of a way to deal with it?"

"It is indeed expected, but... there is no way."

Li Beifeng waved his hand.

"Then...that's it?"

Shen Qingning couldn't help but glance outside the door. At this time, there was a steady flow of pedestrians outside the door.

The location chosen for the drug store is a bustling street in Ping'an County, although the location of the drug store is not in the bustling center. But after all, there is a lot of traffic, and now not a single customer comes to the door. This is indeed strange.

Is it possible...are the people in Ping'an County so healthy?

"Just wait, we are not in a hurry!"

Li Beifeng looked like he was not in a hurry at all: "There are people who are more anxious than us."

"Who is it?"

Shen Qingning asked subconsciously.

However, she soon seemed to have thought of something.

After all, Shen Qingning was not stupid, and she quickly guessed something.

"You mean...Cao Yan?!"

After thinking about it carefully, Shen Qingning finally thought of something.

yes!

No matter how bad the business is, if a drug store is opened in a place like this, it is impossible not to have a single customer come to the door.

The only explanation is that someone among them secretly deliberately sabotaged it.

Then...the only person who has a grudge against Li Beifeng and secretly causes sabotage is...

"I'll go find him and cause trouble now!"

After figuring this out, Shen Qingning immediately became murderous and planned to settle the score with Cao Yan!

"forget it!"

Li Beifeng stopped Shen Qingning who was about to go out and shook his head: "Don't worry, it's not us who are anxious now, it's him who is anxious..."

"We have no business, aren't we the ones who are anxious?"

"That's not necessarily the case!"

Li Beifeng raised his eyebrows: "What do you think is the purpose of opening a pharmacy?"

Shen Qingning was stunned for a moment and asked tentatively: "Making money?"

"Nonsense, if I don't make money, do you think I'm here for charity?"

Li Beifeng rolled his eyes and said again: "However, there is no need to worry about making money for the time being... After all, I am not short of money right now."

At the moment, Li Beifeng is indeed not short of money.

With the confidence that he would not die of hunger, Li Beifeng would naturally have the energy to do other things.

For example... disgust Cao Yan.

For Li Beifeng, opening a drug store is only a small part of his plan.

The main purpose is to facilitate the purchase of medicinal materials and pharmaceutical research.

As for making money, it is only a small part of it.

Of course, there is a bigger reason.

Li Beifeng plans to compete with Cao Yan for business.

After all, the drug store business was just a small part of Li Beifeng's business, but it was different for Cao Yan.

The entire pharmacy business in Ping'an County, and even in the surrounding counties, is almost monopolized by the Cao family.

The people who monopolize the drug store business are distant relatives of the Cao family and younger brothers of the Cao family.

But in fact, the person behind it was Cao Yan.

Using the name of Pingan County Magistrate, Cao Yan has been engaged in monopoly business and has made a lot of money by reselling medicinal materials over the years.

Therefore, it can be said that the drug store business is Cao Yan's foundation.

If he could face Cao Yan from this point, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to him.

At the same time, Li Beifeng suddenly intervened in the drug store business, which naturally made Cao Yan wary.

Therefore, it is not without reason that Li Beifeng's business was so miserable on the day he opened his business.

"So, you have already thought of how to deal with him?"

Shen Qingning stared at Li Beifeng with burning eyes, trying to get useful answers from his face.

"No."

Li Beifeng shook his head: "He is the county magistrate's son, can I deal with him? I don't want to go to the Ping'an County jail and spend time in jail."

"Hmph, don't worry, even if you have to go to jail, I will definitely rescue you."

Shen Qingning curled her lips and frowned: "But that guy Cao Yan is really annoying."

"I also think so."

Li Beifeng was convinced.

What makes Cao Yan disgusting is not how much harm he can cause to Li Beifeng. Even in every fight with Li Beifeng, Cao Yan failed to gain any advantage.

However, Cao Yan always secretly disgusts people.

Including these few incidents, Li Beifeng knew very well that he was inseparable from Cao Yan.

Therefore, Li Beifeng can conclude that Cao Yan is indeed... a real villain.

…

However, criticism is criticism.

For now, Li Beifeng has not found a way to deal with Cao Yan.

If Cao Yan does not take the initiative to come to the door to cause trouble, Li Beifeng will naturally be unable to do anything to him.

However, if he takes the initiative to come to the door to cause trouble... then it is not Li Beifeng's fault.

He started it first.

Therefore, Li Beifeng actually had some expectations?

However, unfortunately, his wish was ultimately unfulfilled.

Cao Yan did not come to the door to "visit" as Li Beifeng imagined.

Even after Li Beifeng's medicine shop opened for a few days, there was no movement at all.

Of course, no customers came to the door.

Not a single business was done.

Looking at the busy streets outside the door, compared with the cold and empty scene of the store, it formed a strong contrast.

It was even a little... weird!

…

On the other hand, Cao Yan was not in a very good mood.

Life is not satisfactory for eight out of ten times... This sentence fully describes Cao Yan's recent mood.

At the beginning, Cao Yan's mood should have been happy. Even... a little happy.

Because he heard that Shen Qingning and Li Beifeng broke up.

Yes, completely broken up!

That day, he ran to the Shen Mansion to tell the secret.

He told Shen Qingning that Li Beifeng lived with another woman.

Stone hammer!

When he learned that Shen Qingning really rushed to Lijia Village, Cao Yan was very excited.

He immediately rushed to Lijia Village to watch the excitement.

Such an important historical moment, how could he miss it?

Especially with the lesson of the last time, Cao Yan wanted to witness it with his own eyes this time.

When Cao Yan arrived at Lijia Village, he happened to see Shen Qingning running out of Lijia Village crying.

Although he didn't know what happened specifically, judging from Shen Qingning's reaction... it should be almost the same.

It's settled!

So, as soon as he returned to Ping'an County, Cao Yan immediately sent someone to inquire.

As expected, the truth was soon found out.

It is said that after returning home, Shen Qingning locked herself in the room and refused to eat or drink for two days and two nights...

In this case, it turned out that Li Beifeng was living with another woman?

Good news!

Celebrate together?

Cao Yan almost wanted to go to the restaurant to set up two tables to celebrate.

This time, Shen Qingning should have completely seen through Li Beifeng's hypocritical face, recognized his dirty soul, and rejected him from a thousand miles away from him, right?

So, Cao Yan felt that it was time for him to appear.

When Shen Qingning was heartbroken, it was time for him to stand up.

Comfort Shen Qingning, comfort her, persuade her carefully, and give her a glimmer of hope in despair...Who knows, Shen Qingning might feel that her image has become taller and more reliable than Li Beifeng, the hypocritical guy?

However, when Cao Yan ran to Shen's house. He was blocked outside the door before he even entered.

Shen Qingning didn't see anyone.

But Cao Yan was not discouraged. After all, Shen Qingning was heartbroken, which was understandable.

Moreover, the sadder Shen Qingning was, didn't it mean that she was disappointed in Li Beifeng?

Then wouldn't his chances be greater?

...

It must be said that Cao Yan's brain circuit was indeed very strange.

There is a saying that licking to the extreme.

At the end, licking dogs like to comfort themselves and make up the plot in their minds.

Originally, Cao Yan planned to wait for Shen Qingning to calm down before looking for her.

But what Cao Yan never expected was that Shen Qingning did calm down.

But...

Shen Qingning ran to Lijia Village again.

More importantly, Shen Qingning, who came back from Lijia Village... suddenly returned to normal? !

Even, there was something wrong with her relationship with Li Beifeng again.

Not only did the two appear in the same frame and get along well. Even... Shen Qingning was talking and laughing...

When the servants reported this information to Cao Yan, it was like a bolt from the blue, hitting Cao Yan's head hard.

Cao Yan was completely numb.

He was depressed.

He was heartbroken!

No, he hadn't had time to fall in love yet.

At this moment, Cao Yan felt that he was the clown.

He suddenly hated himself so much, hated why he had become a crying fool, not at all like the son of the magistrate of Ping'an County.

"..."

However, as the saying goes, if you fail in love, you will succeed elsewhere.

However, before Cao Yan could get rid of the sadness of losing love, another bad news came.

"Sir, someone is not afraid of death and opened a medicine shop on our territory!"

When Cao Yan heard the news, he was furious!

Opening a medicine shop on his territory?

Is that blind person blind?

Tampering with the Tai Sui? !

You know, all the medicine shops near Ping'an County have long been monopolized by him, Cao Yan.

Anyone who opened a medicine shop could not get around Cao Yan's hand.

Over the years, Cao Yan made a lot of money by monopolizing medicine shops, raising prices, and squeezing the people.

For Cao Yan, the medicine shop is his root and the cornucopia of his wealth.

Now someone dares to open a medicine shop under his nose... he must be tired of living.

Cao Yan, who was already very sad and angry about Li Beifeng's matter, seemed to have found an outlet for venting his anger and was going to teach the new owner of the medicine shop a lesson.

However, after the investigation, Cao Yan was stunned.

"What did you say? Who opens the pharmacy?"

As if he didn't hear what his servant said clearly, Cao Yan couldn't help but confirm again.

The guard said: "Sir, it's... it's Li Beifeng..."

"Li Beifeng?"

Cao Yan was stunned.

"Which Li Beifeng?"

"Sir... what other Li Beifeng can there be?"

Cao Yan suddenly fell silent.

After being silent for a long time, the expression on his face gradually became ferocious.

"The person named Li is bullying others too much!"

Not only did he steal Shen Qingning, he actually wanted to steal his own business.

Why is he so brave?

"If you dare to open a medicine shop on my territory, this time, I will make him die miserably!"

In anger, a cruel smile appeared on Cao Yan's face.

Li Beifeng actually dared to open a medicine shop on his territory. He hadn't figured out how to deal with Li Beifeng at first.

Now, he actually delivered it to the door himself.

No wonder he is!

A cruel smile appeared on Cao Yan's face.

"Son..."

There was some hesitation on the face of the guard on the side, "I don't know whether to say something or not..."

"Say something quickly!" Cao Yan frowned.

"Actually, the boss behind the drug store is not only Li Beifeng, but also...Miss Shen."

"Which Miss Shen?"

The guard sighed: "The eldest lady of the Shen family...Shen Qingning..."

The expression on Cao Yan's face suddenly solidified: "What did you say?!"

"You mean... Qing Ning is involved in Li Beifeng's pharmacy business?"

The guard nodded affirmatively.

"she……"

The smile on Cao Yan's face disappeared.

Qing Ning, how could she...

Cao Yan, who had originally planned to deal with Li Beifeng, was completely stunned at this moment.

That drug store had Shen Qingning's shares, so how could he deal with Li Beifeng?

When dealing with Li Beifeng, wouldn't it mean that he has trouble with Shen Qingning?

For a moment, Cao Yan's face was full of confusion.

However, his troubled look did not last long.

Soon, the guard spoke again: "And it's not just Miss Shen. I heard that...in addition to Miss Shen, the eldest lady of the Su family has also become a shareholder..."

Cao Yan: "..."

If Cao Yan was just hesitant just now, then now.

Cao Yan was already scolding his mother in his heart!

The eldest lady of the Su family...

Isn’t that Su Shan?

Su Shan actually participated in Li Beifeng's drug store business? !

What does she want to do?

What does she mean?

Isn't this too damn bullying?

Cao Yan was very angry.

The Su family is not short of money, and the Su family's business is huge. Coupled with the brilliance of the Su family in the capital, I don't know how many people are rushing to have something to do with the Su family.

If the Su family wants to do business, they can enter any industry at any time.

Not to mention the Shen family.

In terms of business alone, the scale of the Shen family's business is even greater than that of the Su family.

And now, they actually...they actually set their sights on the small drug store business at the same time?

And it’s a drug store business in Ping’an County?

Is this little business enough to fill their teeth?

Apparently not enough.

It is obvious then that they did not participate in the drug store business just to make money.

Are they here for...Li Beifeng? ! !

Thinking of this, the expression on Cao Yan's face turned completely gloomy.

He suddenly realized that things were not that simple.

Li Beifeng...maybe he did it on purpose.

…
